  • Is my car a freak?

    The only performance mods i have done to my car are headers, my home made intake, and borla exhaust, and it was tuned by me, and i dyno'd at 215hp/234tq. Everyone elses numbers i have seen have been way lower than mine, and most cars with cam barely have 215hp, even the other v6 camaro's i dyno'd with that had the same mods, why is this?

    That is always a possibility. Although, I'm sure a lot of it could be in your tuning, or maybe even the type of dyno you used. Being a manual car will also help to keep your numbers up versus the lower numbers of an automatic.

      I would say someone before you had engine work done. Something isn't normal. I was questioning it last time I came across your power and times

                    i dont think it was the dyno, my friend with the same mods as me and a tune dynod at 184/217 the same time i dyno'd.

                    and my name was originally "FondleMonster" on xbox live, just being funny when i was younger, and i just never thought of a new name, everyone always called me fondle lol

                    i bet its my raw a** lid i made out of fiberglass, ha ha i really have no idea

                        if you already have headers on your car, you will see night and day difference, i tuned my buddies car last weekend and he has shaved lid/headers/and a blowmaster and he says it feel so much smoother and can feel a good difference in power, let me know if you come down to austin

                              You made a fiberglass air lid? I've done a little work with fiberglass and was considering trying a smooth bellow, but ended up just making a mess with that green foam stuff haha. Those fumes are pretty noxious though, I wonder if it's helping power haha.
